Influence of configuration of the electrode system of a coaxial magneto plasma accelerator on arc discharge formation and development. Bulletin of the Tomsk Polytechnic University. Geo Аssets Engineering, 2023, vol. 334, no. 8, рр. 39-50. In Rus. The relevance of the research is explained by a wide range of practical areas, where various plasma generators can be used, including analytical devices, technological installations, tokamaks, ion and plasma engines, satellites, laser technology, as well as by the possibility of applying them for both producing coatings on various surfaces and synthesizing fine and nanopowders. The main aim of the research is to determine the best way to initiate an arc discharge in the acceleration channel of the coaxial magnetoplasma accelerator, to estimate the effect of the plasma formation zone configuration on the electrodynamic loads of the accelerator, and to calculate the efficiency of conversion of stored energy to supplied one. Objects: coaxial magnetoplasma accelerator, arc discharge initiation, central electrode, electrode-barrel, plasma formation zone. Methods: experiment, plasma dynamic synthesis, measurement and registration of pulsed currents and voltages, electrical erosion measurement by means of weighing the eroding electrode-bore, high-speed photoregistration of the plasma jet. Results. Two methods of arc discharge initiation using metal wires and graphitization were considered. It is established that they do not affect the energy parameters of the plasma dynamic synthesis, but the graphitization looks preferable due to the greater processability of the procedure that provides easy accelerator preparation and reliability of its operation. The possibility of reducing the arc discharge current amplitude by 29 % with increasing the plasma formation zone length from 5,5 to 11,5 mm was established that results in reducing electrodynamic loads on all system nodes. The optimal plasma formation zone length of 9,5 mm was determined to provide obtaining a high efficiency of conversion of stored energy into supplied energy and reliability of the system operation. |
